Dedication and Talent Shine at Sherwood Holiday Concerts

The superb sounds of developing student-musicians were showcased at Sherwood on Dec. 14, as they presented three stellar holiday concerts for their community, friends and families.

The events including performances by the beginner orchestra and band students in fourth grade, the more advanced fifth-grade orchestra and band, and a combined chorus made up of both fourth- and fifth-grade students.

“I am very proud of all the dedicated musicians involved,” said Holly Markee, who directed the performances along with fellow music teacher Holly Markee. “They were able to share their love and joy for music.”

“I was so impressed by the ability of our music students,” said Principal Chad Walerstein. “They have not been playing for very long, but you would never know it from listening to the music created by this talented group of boys and girls. Ms. Perrillo and Ms. Markee have done a great job.”
